Tampa Truck Accident Lawyer
Florida is a major transportation hub, with tractor-trailers and 18-wheelers bringing merchandise from South Florida ports to every state in the U.S. This means our highways are clogged with trucking traffic—and particularly hazardous for drivers of cars and motorcycles.
Every year, hundreds of Florida motorists and tourists are injured, or killed, in collisions or under-ride or over-ride crashes with trucks.
At the Law Offices of Michael J. Meksraitis our attorney and staff are dedicated to helping injured people and grieving families achieve financial recovery. We have obtained millions of dollars in compensation for injured people in settlements and trial verdicts. We also bring wrongful death claims on behalf of family members who have lost a loved one in a fatal semi truck accident. We can help you.
Contact our Tampa law office to schedule a free consultation. We represent clients across south Florida, including tourists injured while on vacation in our area.
Investigating Your Truck Accident
Because commercial trucks operate under different laws and regulations than other types of vehicles, it's wise to work with an injury lawyer who has experience handling interstate trucking accidents. Attorney Michael Meksraitis [Link to Attorney Profiles Page] has been investigating truck accidents for more than 30 years. He understands the complex mix of factors that can cause a truck crash:
- Problems with the driver: fatigue, drug or alcohol use, reckless or dangerous driving, speeding
- Problems with the vehicle: poor maintenance, bad loading, faulty brakes or lights, defective truck parts
- Problems with the roadway: poor signage, defective highway design, problems created by road construction
Proving Your Injuries
Getting you an accurate medical diagnosis and proper medical treatment is one of our first concerns. We work with a variety of medical experts to ensure our clients have the best chance for physical recovery while their case is in negotiation or in court to get them financial recovery.
Many of our clients have suffered catastrophic injuries, including traumatic brain injury, loss of limbs, spinal cord injuries, and paralysis. Daily life presents many more challenges and difficulties. We do everything we can to help you navigate the medical and legal system. Once we begin working on your case we will handle all negotiations and paperwork for you. You can focus on recovery.
